My Topic: Spoiler, it’s ME

So what could be easier and more self centered to talk about for an entire semester other than myself? I like to talk about myself. I have lots of cool stories (cool to me at least), I’m funny (according to my mom), and it’s an excuse to not have to do even more research in addition to my 5 other classes, its the perfect storm. I can talk about a lot involving myself, who knows me best other than me? I can talk about the love I have for my cat for a couple pages at least, and if I get the opportunity to do so, I will.

Finding media to post should be relatively simple, I need a selfie? I take one. YouTube style video? Create one. It more just involves what content I need to include that I’ll need to brainstorm for. Do I tell the story on being a volunteer at the Cleveland APL since I was 7, or do I talk about my experience getting lost in Target when I was 5. It all depends on the content that is asked for by the person grading this. Of course the preparation will mean doing hair and makeup… if I’m feelin’ it.

Now I’m not quite sure how all of this graphic design stuff is going to go for me. I can’t draw a stick figure with a pencil and paper let alone using a mouse and a complicated computer program I have absolutely no experience with. This leads me into believing that simple may be the way to go for me. The logo, hopefully will fit into the required criteria, I’m just hoping to make maybe a circle with my name inside in some cool, fancy, creative way. Maybe, I’ll get crazy and have my name going outside of the circle or something? For the video project it again depends on what the criteria is and what I’ll need to do to fit within those parameters. Regardless, a good idea might be something like what I do on a daily basis for school? Maybe? We’ll see.

Some sites I find cool are those people who do reviews like Tati Westbrook on YouTube. I know, I know, she does makeup reviews. I’m a big makeup gal what can I say? It’d be cool to maybe do a review on something, I’m really opinionated on just about everything. Another one I find hilarious and just simply amazing on YouTube is this channel, it’s literally just a bunch of Irish people that try American snacks and drinks. Not sure how I’d replicate this, but I would definitely be down to find a way to get food from another country and record myself trying it. Last but certainly not least, Jessica Slaughter seems to have college life down. I’d love to see myself evolve into something like this. Whether it’s the format or literally becoming her, I’d do it.
